Time Course and Mechanisms Underlying Standing Balance Recovery Early After Stroke: Design of a Prospective Cohort Study With Repeated Measurements

DiscussionThe current study aims to investigate how stroke survivors “re-learn” to maintain standing balance as an integral part of daily life activities. The knowledge gained through this study may contribute to recommending treatment strategies for early stroke rehabilitation targeting behavioral restitution of the most-affected leg or learning to compensate with the less-affected leg.
